Angle display

Quick reference manual

1. First of all

This manual describes how to use the angle display function of the display unit (LH70 series and LY70 series).

Ribbon scale (Digiruler) or commercially available rotary encoder can be used as the encoder that can be used for

angle detection. Each setting method is different, but the scaling function is used to correct the angle and display it.

The displayable range is ±360 degrees

If the selected display resolution is too small for the number of output pulses (angle data) from the encoder, the

displayed value will be scattered. For continuous and smooth angle display, it is necessary to consider the number of

output pulses from the encoder and the display resolution to be selected.

For encoders with origin, the origin function of the counter can be used.

LH70_LY70 Angle display Quick reference manual

All ribbon scales can be used, but consider the combination

depending on the length and radius of the arc to which the

scale is actually mounted and the display resolution. The

maximum angle that can be displayed on the ribbon scale is

359 degrees. Even if you attach the scale to a 360-degree

arc well, an error will occur at the part that straddles the

joint.

2-3. How to install

2-4. Setting operation

(1) Set up parallel pins on the flat

surface and attach the scale. Remove

the parallel pin after installation.

(2) Make a stop surface for mounting

the scale. Consider the thickness of

the scale and the amount of clearance

with the reader head

(3) Provide a mounting groove with

a width slightly larger than the scale.

A typical example for pasting scales in parallel is shown below.

SL130 and SL331 have a strong scale base material, so if they are

attached to an arc surface, the scale edge may bounce off. It is

recommended to fix the base material of the scale with a suitable

clamp plate.

For more information on pasting scales, refer to the head unit

instruction manual.

details on the basic settings, refer to the separate initial setup manual of display unit. Then enter the display resolution and mounting

radius values in the advanced settings. Compare the mounting radius value with an angle reference device (right angle ruler: 90

degrees), etc., and narrow down the radius value so that the angle error is minimized.

3-2. Setting operation

First of all, in the basic settings, set the measurement unit resolution to the angular resolution that takes into account the output pulse

per rotation of the rotary encoder. For details on the basic settings, refer to the separate initial setup manual of display unit.

Next, set the display resolution and scaling value in the Advanced settings. Unless the number of rotary encoder output pulses is the

same as the number of pulses converted to minutes and seconds, it is always necessary to correct the number of pulses by scaling.

(Factory default scaling: 1.000000)

Select the measurement unit resolution that can be used in the basic settings. Check the number of

output pulses per rotation of the rotary encoder, select the angular resolution that can be set from the

table below, and set it.
